Arrange a party for your friends and community, meet the author, hear about gathering the stories shared in the book...and share your own stories with your friends, your family, and your community.

Together we share ideas, explore alternatives to war and militarism, and create more effective modes of being an activist in our changing world.

Long Time Passing: Mothers Speak about War and Terror gets to the heart of extreme social experiences -- war and warriors, mothers and children, communities and cultures -- and explores the meaning of courage, fear, and the leadership traits that get us into war.

Author, Susan Galleymore says:

I wrote this book to share these stories ... and to encourage a new kind of discussion in the US -- one that finds creative ways for all of us concerned with peace and prosperity to explore -- and connect across -- the divides that currently define our lives.

Our book parties and workshops share stories and encourage participants to network, collaborate, and support one another in building communities for peace locally and internationally. They’re fun, creative, informative, and, most of all, they’re productive!

Do it for peace’s sake.
